Pumpkin-Protein Smoothie: Kid-Friendly
October 31, 2012How many smoothies do y’all make a week? I can’t even begin to count over at my house. My kids are always trying new creations, and I am trying to keep up with their creativity. This Pumpkin-Protein Smoothie was a recent favorite. I had some leftover pumpkin, and I thought why not try it with peanut butter? It sounds a little weird at first, but it works. Happy Halloween! Here’s to a great fall 2012!

Although the recipe sounds great and I plan on trying it tomorrow, what actually caught my eye was the napkin(maybe placemat?) your smoothie is sitting on. Can I ask where you found them? I have been looking for something similar for table decor. Thanks in advance. :)

Since my blender broke... zero :-/ But this is giving me another reason to get a new blender.

This looks great and in the summer, I probably make nearly as many smoothies as you! You have more kids though - they INHALE them! lol
